Matrix Audio
Matrix mini-i Pro 3 / mini-i 3 Wireless Bluetooth DAC/Amp
The Matrix Mini-i 3/Pro 3 is an all-in-one DAC/Amp that features dual-band WiFi*, high-res Bluetooth, and an array of inputs and outputs, making it the Grand Central Station of your sound system.
*Mini-i 3 does not support WiFi connection.
The Grand Central Station of Receivers
You’re a diehard vinylhead today, but who says you won’t fall in love with streaming tomorrow? Tastes change, which means you need a receiver that can handle any listening situation. With more ins and outs than Grand Central Station, the Matrix Mini-3/Pro 3 can handle any listening situation. Vinyl through headphones? Check. Game console through speakers? Check. XLR, coaxial, optical, USB, RCA, IIS LVDS, 6.35 SE, and 4.4 balanced headphone jacks? (Wowza.) Check.
Wired(less) For Sound
Why does listening to high-res audio require immobilizing our phones, laptops, and tablets with cables? Shouldn’t our mobiles be mobile? With dual-band WiFi (2.4GHz/5GHz)* and high-res Bluetooth connectivity (24bit/96kHz), the Mini-i 3/Pro 3 will set your mobiles free.
*Mini-i 3 does not support WiFi connection.
Full-Color Display
With a 3.3”, 24-bit color LCD display, the Mini-i 3/Pro 3 depicts your library in all its glory. It also displays input channels, streaming methods, device configurations, and digital filter curves. Your music has never looked better.
MQA-Ready*
Would you die a little if we told you that MP3 files deliver just 10% of original studio recordings? That’s one-tenth of the nuance, depth, and richness that the artist intended for you to hear. MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) files, on the other hand, deliver the full, uncompressed sound of the original master recordings in all their richness. The Mini-i Pro 3 is an MQA full decoder, enabling you to play MQA files and streams without any software decoding.
*Mini-i 3 does not support MQA files.
